Joey Fatone gets his own GSN show

For a long time now Joey Fatone has been imploring audiences to give it up for Steve Harvey on GSN's Family Feud reruns. Now Joey is getting his own show on our little game show network. It's called Common Knowledge, and it debuts January 14.

The quizzer "asks practical, everyday questions that everyone should know, such as what should you do when you have a fever? Or how can you tell if a watermelon is ripe?"

What if a ripe watermelon has a fever? I guess that's uncommon knowledge and won't be tested. The linked story doesn't offer many more details about the show, like the time slot that GSN will give it. Prime time is probably not a possibility, unless network execs are super sure of the show's success. America Says had to endure a test in late afternoon before GSN deigned to give it a slot in the peak viewing hours.

After a lot of unscripted TV, Joey seems like a natural to host a game show. He helmed The Singing Bee, which died a quick death on NBC, though CMT revived it later with Melissa Peterman. Good luck to Joey on his GSN venture.
